In the UK, a TV show or a collection of projects is a "programme," but "program" is used as a verb and for anything related to computers.

Principles of the Treaty Bill - deadline extended
The deadline for submissions on the Principles of the Treaty Bill has been extended one week.
Let's support the Bill, honour the original Treaty, help our Maori fellow citizens who want to move forward as one nation with one people and prevent extremists from plunging New Zealand into separatism, marxism and apartheid by misleading people for personal gain.
Let's defend our democracy!
